Sims 2 stuff. Probably.

Science building picspam (Reply)

For some dumb reason after installing FT, I decided I just had to default replace the hobby magazines with a mix of 1920s magazine images and in-game photos. A lot of the science-related stuff I had seemed more Tinkering than Science, so there was a blank interior page. Then I remembered I had a whole building full of science-related stuff in my main university, so I went in and took some photos to fill up the page. (Tangent: why is there such a lame selection of science stuff in the game? "You like science? You're going to love looking through the telescope! Oh. You already have? Ah. Um... go stare at that ant farm, I guess." A TS1-style chemistry set would've been great.)

Community lots are hard for me, probably because I try to keep everything on the small side. The Hayes Science Building is a point of pride, though. It features a fancy marbled lobby and floor-to-ceiling windows throughout, the latter an homage to the science building at my alma mater. The zoology room and aquatic biology alcove in particular are influenced by my college days.

I can't identify much of the CC off the top of my head, but MissTiikeri's recolors of the BV poster from the 2011 GOS Advent are all over the place. I'd use them all if I could. I'll get back in the game later to come up with some more credits.

The chem lab is all dull reds. That might be a reflection of my feeling toward chemistry as a student. That's a washing machine soap dispenser on the wall, but we're pretending it's something science-y.

This is awfully dark for a botany classroom.

Even the lab side is dark. (And I'm just noticing the huge power supplies for the hydroponic gardens over there. Ha! A subtle nod to realism.)

feels like the rooms where I had most of my smaller lecture courses. If I could add a retriever-sized alligator like we had in my evo classroom, I would've. Each wall here has a different theme (mostly just so I could use a bunch of those damnable posters). We can see the amphibian and fish walls, but the others are devoted to mollusks and cnidarians.
